Joanna Rowsell has said that she is "over the moon" following her gold medal triumph at the Commonwealth Games in the women's 3,000m pursuit.
The 25-year-old, who also won gold at the Olympic Games in London four years ago, finished 3.835s ahead of Annette Edmondson at the Chris Hoy Velodrome.
"This is the one I really wanted," BBC Sport quotes Rowsell as saying. "The Commonwealth Games come round every four years and very rarely near your home country.
"With the individual pursuit out of the Olympics now, this is the biggest event I can do in it. It's the event I was originally talent-spotted for when I started so it means a lot to me. I'm absolutely over the moon."
Amy Cure took bronze for Australia behind the two Team England cyclists.
